Support, advocacy, community

Stronger breathing room for every member in Vasternorrland

Centralorganisation for Hjart- och Lungsjuka i Vasternorrlands Lan connects local associations, practical guidance, and peer-led activities for people living with heart and lung conditions.

Member Support

Guidance on rehabilitation, rights, and everyday tools after diagnosis.

Peer Groups

Small local circles and digital meetups built around trust and continuity.

Advocacy

Regional coordination that brings member voices into care access and policy.

Mission

We turn lived experience into local action.

Our work links association leaders, volunteers, and families so support is practical, close to home, and shaped by the realities of heart and lung health in the county.

From Härnösand outward, we build continuity between meetings, information, events, and long-term belonging.
